How we do

Brace yourselves: there was another barbecue at work recently. (I say “recently” because I’m sooooo behind in blog posts. I’m writing this a week after the bbq, but it won’t publish until a week from now probably. I’m so confused! What month is it again?)

Anyway, I was busy working (of all things) when the bbq began, so I missed the first part. After about 20 panicked calls from my coworkers wondering where I was with my camera and expressing genuine concern that I would miss all the good stuff, I made my way down to the patio. The buns and burgers were gone (fine with me!), but Ibrahim was kind enough to put the remainders of his meal on display for blog purposes:

For breakfast dessert … and lunch … and dinner, I ate copious amounts of Pansy’s ambrosia:

And I’m pretty sure I went home and ran like a million miles before I could fall asleep because I had so much extra energy jazzing me up! Something I’ve noticed: as much as I looooooove veggies, my best runs take place after too much cake and other desserts. No pain, endless stamina, positive self-talk the whole way through. It’s a crazy effect. I wish that a mountain of steamed broccoli would produce the same result! What is the most effective exercise fuel for you?

Sarah- i think you are sooooo incredibly lucky! you have great co-workers who fully support your blogging efforts! do you ever stop to think that they want to famous internet stars and host all these food centered things so you will snap pics and post them?! lol im just teasing.. i think its cool!!! and i wish my co-workers were that cool! (bunch of old guys.. BOOOOO!)

most effective exercise tool??? i dont really have one, but lately, compared to my boy- i have felt as lazy as sh*t so that is certainly making me go the extra mile.. (literally! lol)

Wow, if I ate too much cake I would get SUCH BAD cramps from running!! I like to eat cereal and coffee before a run (about 30 minutes before). I don’t run really long, so it doesn’t cause any problems..if you know what I mean.

I LOVE those Veggie Crisps. I love how you can eat about 20 and it’s only about 120 calories!! You can’t beat that, PLUS they are lower in sodium and grease than most chips.
Mmm…I also love those olives on your plate!
